Pregnancy Cravings

Tuesday, July 9, 2013

One of the most common questions that people (strangers, coworkers, friends) ask me is if I have had any strong pregnancy cravings. I can't say that I've had any bizarre or interesting food addictions -- I've more INDULGED than craved.

I've always had a sweet tooth but usually I try to keep it under control. Before I got pregnant I was all, I'm going to stop eating sweets when I get pregnant because it's healthier for the baby--- HA! Instead I feel like it's one of the only things that's kept me going these past nine months. In particular: gelato/ice cream and donuts. I've been eating so many Mighty-O donuts that Jenny had a big tray of them at my baby shower instead of cake!

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I've gained 40 lbs! At least he'll be a summer baby so I can work it off in the sunshine. What did you crave during pregnancy?
